Amitabh Bachchan : The King of Cinema

Happy Birth Day (11 Oct.)
My favorite and world's greatest star Amitabh Bachchan is the prodigious son of the great Hindi poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan. Amitabh was born on 11th October, 1942 at Allahabad in India. He is married to Jaya Bhaduri, a talented actress herself . It was love at first sight for Amitabh as Jaya became his spouse and the famous Guddi girl transformed into Mrs. Bachchan.
One of their children Abhishek has recently followed the footsteps of his parents and entered the film industry. Only time will tell whether he will measure up to his father's success.
Amitabh, the six feet tall man from the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh heralded the trend of the angry young man in country's film industry. Director K. A. Abbas launched him in the film 'Saat Hindustani' which went unnoticed. But luckily for him Prakash Mehra signed him for 'Zanjeer' which worked out extraordinarily well for the young star and he never looked back. Big B has worked almost with all successful directors right from Hrishikesh Mukherjee to Yash Chopra to Mehul Kumar.
The versatile actor fits into every mould of acting be it a comic role or a serious one. He has also done the playback in many of his films. He is a house-hold name in the country, the people simply adore him. When Amitabh met with a serious accident on the sets of 'Coolie' the entire nation united in prayers for his speedy recovery. The prayers turned into a blessing for the superhero, as he returned to the scene with double the impact.
The actor's stint at politics was albeit a mix of failures and disappointments but with his characteristic bright, Amitabh was quick to recoil and return to his rightful arena.
With an excellent career and great family life, Big B launched his company ABCL which is known as Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited which released many films like Mani Ratnam's 'Bombay' and Shekhar Kapoor's 'Bandit Queen' and commercial film's like Joy Augustine's 'Tere Mere Sapne' and Sachin's 'Naam Kya Hai' which was produced under the same banner. Amitabh also utilized his singing skills in his albums 'Eer Bhir Phatte' and 'Kabhi Kabhi'.
